Activity 2. Spotting Commonalities and Differences
Directions: Create a T-chart reflecting the similarities and differences between the domains of
the National Competency-Based Standards for School Heads (NCBSSH) and the Competency
Framework for Southeast Asian School Heads (CFSASH). Then, in the ‘Summary’ section,
discuss briefly how the two frameworks can serve as practical guide in capacitating/developing
our future school heads effectively. Be guided by the sample diagram below.

Summary: NCBSSH and CFSASH can serve as practical guides in capacitating/developing
future school heads by providing a framework for leadership development, focusing on
essential competencies, skills, and knowledge required for effective school leadership. By
referencing these frameworks, educational institutions can design training programs that help
future school heads develop the necessary skills to manage schools efficiently, promote
student learning, and foster a positive school culture. Additionally, the frameworks can help in
identifying areas of improvement and developing customized training plans for individual
school leaders.
